Rain Bird PRS-050-30 1/2" Retrofit Pressure Regulator

The Rain Bird PRS-050-30 retrofit pressure regulator provides reliable, preset 30 psi outlet pressure and integrated 200-mesh filtration for 1/2" FPT drip and micro-irrigation applications. Designed for simple retrofit into existing spray-head bodies or direct installation at the riser, it protects emitters and tubing from high pressure while reducing maintenance and replacement costs.

• Preset 30 psi regulation: Keeps outlet pressure steady for consistent emitter performance and reduced tubing blowouts.
• Integrated 200-mesh (75 μm) stainless-steel screen: Catches debris before it reaches emitters, simplifying system maintenance.
• Wide operating range: Accepts inlet pressures from 15 to 70 psi and supports flows of 0.5 to 4.0 GPM (30–240 GPH).
• Compact retrofit design: Drops into 1804 spray head bodies or installs at the riser with 1/2" female inlet and male swivel outlet for quick conversion to drip.
• Includes fittings for drip conversion: Supplied with a low-profile barb tee and elbow plus 1/2" FPT x elbow and tee fittings for easy tubing connections.
• Durable construction: High-strength ABS body and stainless-steel internal springs deliver long-term field performance above or below grade.

Ideal for landscapers and homeowners converting spray systems to micro-irrigation, the PRS-050-30 reduces emitter replacement and delivers steady flow for reliable watering. For best results, install downstream of a control valve and add a check valve when emitters sit more than 5 feet above the regulator.
